  • Give me Greenland
    Jan 22 2026
    A strategically-located island in the Atlantic circled by Russian ships and with few of its own defences... Greenland has caught the avaricious eye of the president of the United States and the result is destroying the assumptions that defined the post-WW2 era. As world leaders meet in Davos amid a crumbling world order, Naomi and Tim consider the tumultuous events of recent weeks and what it means for Ireland. Plus: Mercusor. Is the trade deal with Latin American countries a much-needed overture to strengthen alternative alliances, or is the ecological price too high? A bonus Halfpint debrief episode will be available on Patreon in which we discuss the surprising facts and figures behind gun ownership in Ireland.
